Our verdict on Pure XS: Acquired

This is a love-it-or-hate-it gourmand with a divisive popcorn note that's either sexy and unique or sickly sweet and off-putting. If you want to make a statement and stand out, this potent vanilla bomb is for you. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

Date

Its potent projection and long-lasting sweetness make it overwhelming for office or formal settings. However, its sexy, confident character and 'head-turner' quality, as described by many, make it ideal for date nights and evening events.

About

Pure XS is a bold, sweet gourmand led by creamy vanilla and a salty, buttery popcorn accord. Ylang-ylang and orange blossom weave through, adding a floral twist to the otherwise edible sweetness, while amberwood and musk provide a warm, sensual base. Hints of peach and coconut round out this opulent concoction.
